Doing a job and business simultaneously in UAE Apr 06, 2007
Hi, is it possible to be employed and setup a free zone company simultaneously in UAE? That is, is it legal? And what happens if a person quits his job to focus on business later on? Are there any issues with NOCs and 6 month bans in practice. I know laws have changed recently to lift the 6 month bans, but am wondering what the reality on the ground is.

thanks.

DOn't know about legal restrictions but there may be contractual conflicts with your current job. "Owning" a company might be permitted but "working" for another employer is not.

I know many you have, as far as I know if setting up a bussiness outside of a freezone you will need a NOC from your sponsor. Other than that is should not be a problem.
